About Big Data Cloud
Big Data Cloud is an Australian-based API platform that provides geolocation, IP intelligence, and reverse geocoding services. If your application needs to know where a user is based on their IP address, convert GPS coordinates to a street address, or look up timezone and network information, Big Data Cloud offers a set of REST APIs that handle these lookups.
The API suite includes IP geolocation (mapping IP addresses to countries, cities, and postcodes), reverse geocoding (turning latitude/longitude pairs into human-readable addresses), timezone detection, and ASN (Autonomous System Number) lookups for network analysis. There is a free tier for testing and low-volume use, with paid plans for production workloads.
Because Big Data Cloud is API-first, it fits cleanly into n8n workflows using HTTP request nodes. You can enrich incoming leads with location data, personalise content based on visitor geography, flag suspicious login locations for fraud detection, or add address information to records that only have coordinates. For Australian businesses, having an Australian-based provider can simplify data residency conversations. Talk to us about data enrichment workflows using Big Data Cloud.

How it works
We work hand-in-hand with you to implement Big Data Cloud
As Big Data Cloud consultants we work with you hand in hand build more efficient and effective operations. Here’s how we will work with you to automate your business and integrate Big Data Cloud with integrate and automate 800+ tools.
Step 1
Identify Your Geolocation Use Cases
We start by clarifying what you need location data for: lead enrichment, content personalisation, fraud detection, address lookup, or analytics. Each use case determines which Big Data Cloud APIs you need and how the data flows into your existing systems.
Step 2
Set Up Your API Account and Keys
We create your Big Data Cloud account, generate API keys, and configure rate limits appropriate for your expected call volume. If you need multiple keys for different environments (development, staging, production), we set those up with appropriate access controls.
Step 3
Build the n8n Workflow
Using HTTP Request nodes in n8n, we build the integration workflow. For example: a new lead arrives via webhook, n8n calls the IP Geolocation API to enrich it with country and city data, then writes the enriched record to your CRM or database. We handle error cases like invalid IPs and rate limit responses.
Step 4
Map Data Fields to Your Systems
The API returns detailed JSON with fields like country, city, postcode, timezone, and confidence scores. We map the specific fields you need to the corresponding fields in your CRM, database, or analytics platform so the data lands in the right place with the right format.
Step 5
Test with Real Traffic
We run the workflow against real IP addresses and coordinates to verify accuracy, response times, and data quality. We check edge cases: IPv6 addresses, private IPs, VPN traffic, and coordinates in remote areas. Any gaps in data quality get documented so your team knows the limitations.
Step 6
Monitor Usage and Costs
We set up monitoring for API call volumes and response times using n8n execution logs. If you are approaching your plan’s rate limit, we can add caching (avoid re-querying the same IP within a time window) or upgrade your plan. We also set up alerts for API errors or unusual usage spikes.
